Yorkshire Trout is on a distinguished road
Default Coniston Hall - Yorkshire

Hi All

Any one fished this recently, haven't been for years. Used to be a lovely location with hard fighting fish?

Cheers

Paul

Hi Paul

Fished Coniston a couple of weeks ago. We had fish on size 14 & 12 black or olive buzzers off a 12 ft leader - 3 flies at 4 ft intervals - the fish were coughing up similar sized naturals in the net. Had fish on all flies at various times of day (takes were mainly to top dropper in morning but had moved to point flies by mid-afternoon). Top spot was in front of large solitary tree at south side of lake almost directly opposite the boathouse.

Tight lines
Mal

Fantastic place to spend a day and the river stretch is good too
